Yes please! And while we are at it, also in conferences during talks. In every CS conference I attend, there's more people chatting than paying attention to the talks. If you don't want to listen, just don't go. This will also make people realize the awful quality of scientific presenters in general, since they will be forced to pay attention to them.
I'm not an expert but I'd say that depends on what kind of company it was. If you have a SRL (Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada, Limited Liability Company), they can go after you for fraud (the limitation of liability is restricted to debts), otherwise I think it's harder...
Here's how: When you and your machine arrive home, park your car keys squarely on top of your laptop case. Now you're not going anywhere without both of them.
Cool! Now that way I can have my laptop and my car both stolen at the same time!
The fiercest Spanish inquisitors (the real Spanish Inquisition, not Monty Python's one) like Mendoza or Torquemada, were of jewish converse origin. Just like politicians that fight prostitution are the best clients of night clubs.
Almost 600 comments and the "All Americans (USAians) are dumb because they only speak English and we Europeans rule" kind of flamewar hasn't started!! Maybe all the pyros have been dragged by the greater gravitational pull of the "Hans shot first" post...
That said, I'm really glad I learned English and French at school (as a native Spanish, French is not that big deal), the things you learn as a kid, stay in your brain even if you don't use them for 10 years (like French in my case). Once you know 3 languages, learning more is just a matter of mental juggling. I live in The Netherlands and learning Dutch has not been especially hard (once you grasp that fu*&ng inversions), and it has the bonus that now I can catch some things in German too.
Being able to chat up hot chicks in their native language is also a plus.

The Red Team Wins

We have (almost) never gone further than quarter finals, usually losing against blue-wearing teams like Italy and France.
I guess we are the exception that confirms the rule...
So now the OS will go in a big flash drive as if it was some kind of firmware (you don't change the os very often, so flash life is not a problem) and leave the spinning disk to what really matters: pr0n!
The issue with the language is starting to change. Traditionally our parents and grandparents studied French (sometimes even IN French) at school as France was regarded as the "power", and also because Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and French are quite similar and we more or less understand each other. In the 70s the we were falling behind and the education system was changed and now all children study English at school and we have to pass a written English test to enter University studies (although you can fail and compensate with other subjects). So you will be able to speak with younger people in English. One of the advantages of living in the EU and being a student is that you can study one year in another university from another country of the EU, at the same price of your home country (1 year in a spanish uni costs $1000, and in other EU countries can be like 10 times more) while receiving a small pay to cover the costs of living abroad. It's called the Socrates-Erasmus program.
Sure, the PHP documentation comments are far form perfect and a wiki would be great, but they have had it for at least 6 years now, and many O.S. projects have their own documentation wikis too, so it isn't that innovative anyway.
... this is a helicopter that cannot hover like a helicopter, has wings and needs a runway to take off and land... An inventor called Juan de la Cierva created something very similar back in the 1920's in Spain, it was called the Autogyro. The only diference is that it also had a propeller in the front.
In my University in Spain (in the Computer Engineering School) all our systems (maybe more than 500) are Pentiums 200 that run windows 2000 quite decently for what we use them (word, matlab, derive, and some others). Ive had experiences with XP installed in a pentium 3 that crawled so I don't think the lab admins are thinking of changing to XP, at least not if the university doesn't provide newer hardware as it has done with other Schools and Faculties, that run WINDOWS 98!!!! in 2Ghz pentiums.
I'd happily donate 20 or even more to NetBSD as I have one netbsd box rnning in an Sun Ultra1 if they had another method of payment than PayPal (credit card is still via pp). They cancelled my account and sucked my funds just because i'm Spanish and my name sounds too "latin" to be doing legal things on Internet.

Uhm, from the "Spanish FBI" website, I read that it was a SA company, so apparently if you are really evil they will go after you after all!

COTS is pronounced exactly the same way as "kots": vomit.

Wow, how innovative! I wish the PHP documentation had user contributions too...

Okay, I don't know the exact quote as I only know it in Spanish, but you get the idea...
